Hi all, After two terms, Mustapha, Robbie and I are stepping down from co-convening the CPD workshop. There will be a vote for the new conveners. It will be run by Robin Dunford (Brighton). If you want to get a group together to enter the election you need to let Robin know by 12th Jan. You will need to get a paragraph together that outlines the collective skills you have and the contributions you wish to make so that you can share that with the membership. You will also need to get a proposer and seconder who are both members of CPD. Voting will then take place (online and anonymous) from 16th-27th Jan. Robbie is proposing and I am seconding a convening group composed of Lisa Tilley (Warwick), Nivi Manchanda (LSE), Kerem Nisancioglu (SOAS) and Duncan Bell (Cambridge). They will be sending out their paragraph in due course.
